What EXO proved through its exclusive concert in Gocheok Sky Dome

1. Is the most popular kpop idol group
EXO held its exclusive concert in Gocheok Sky Dome on October 10. Well, it is a monumental event because EXO became the first ever idol group who held a concert in the dome. Gocheok Sky Dome, which was opened on September 15, 2015, is the first dome stadium in Korea, while Seoul City, which led the construction of the baseball dome, needed to show that the dome also can be used as a cultural facility.(There has been a public criticism surrounding the construction of the dome for various reasons) Then, what do you think is the reason for Seoul City's choosing EXO as the first ever performer of Gocheok Sky Dome? Yeah, the group is now the most popular kpop idol group and it is one of the few idol groups who can fill the dome which accommodates more than 20,000 people.

2. Is competent to hold an exclusive concert for 2 hours
EXO has been on a roll since the group debuted in 2012. However, some raised a question. "Is EXO really a competent singer?" They said the EXO members always lipsync during their concert and are poor singers. Well, at the concert held in Gocheok Sky Dome, EXO performed a total of 19 songs including its hits 'Call Me Baby', 'Growl', 'Overdose', and 'Love Me Right'. Their performance was great. Especially, Baekhyun, Chen and Xiumin showed off their great singing skills by singing SG WANNABE's 'As I Live', while D.O and Suho displayed their musical talents by performing Justin Bieber's 'Boyfriend' and Kim Jo Han's 'I want to fall in love'. They absolutely proved their singing ability.

3. Has no problem with its teamwork
As you know, 3 Chinese members, Kris, Luhan, and Tao have left EXO so far. And of course, EXO held the concert as a nine-member group, and the only Chinese member Lay also took part in the concert. Throughout the concert, EXO showed great teamwork and the 9 members had no problem performing without the 3 Chinese members, while the stage settings were really splendid because SM Entertainment, the biggest kpop agency, provided full support to EXO's concert in Gocheok Sky Dome. At the end of the concert, Lee Soo Man appeared on the stage and said "Thank you. EXO is the best. I love you." Well, it was a symbolic event. What he wanted to show was, like he said, "EXO is the best," and "EXO is doing really great."
